Please note that there are also weird veins of hargrowth not pictured because they are literally two hairs wide and pretty much run between each shift in growth pattern....
ya its me wolverine :'(
Haha this is awesome! Your chart partially agrees with my facial hair growth...man that sounds weird lol.
Add in some diagonal lines on that chart & you have my beard map :p
Standard 2 or 3 pass shave doesn't do it for me. I do 4 passes ie usual 3 but one extra XTG in reverse of previous.
Adapt the shave to your own face.
One pass. WTG everywhere except my chin, which is XTG.
Two passes with the grain.
Most days, one pass and touch ups. Touch up the jowls underneath the jawline, that's it.
Special days, two passes. W and then A.
only in the direction that is ergonomic/comfortable for the hand, which is roughly wtg on my cheeks, and roughly xtg on my neck.
and i generally lather once, but might do a couple passes in the same direction before moving on the the next area.
I begin with WTG and then XTG or ATG, depending which part of my face I am shaving.
The starter of this topic refers to "that super close, smooth-as-a-babies-butt shave". It is hard to believe that one can get that with only WTG.
